View 1 RepliesI have a box I made with the square selection tool. I added a 25 px feather to it to give it nice rounded corners.
I did a paint bucket fill inside the selection and it doesn't fill JUST the insides like I thought it'd do. It does MOST of it but it blends outwards towards the sides of the selection so it's not one solid color.
ALSO when I flood fill a few times, it EXTENDS passed my selection box into the rest of the window!
My question is, how do I make a selection box with rounded corners flood fill COMPLETELY?
I've created a webpage in phtoshop, done my rollovers in image ready and transferred it into dreamweaver.
Now when it's on my hard drive it's fine and works - but when i upload it none on the images show up or they do show but when you put your cursor over a rollover all the images diassapear (they all turn to red crosses).
I've made animated .gifs before without this problem: I have taken 12 seperate .gif images, converted them to RGB mode, dropped them all into the same Photoshop file, and then jumped to Imageready to create frames for each layer. Upon clicking "Save Optimized As", I get the following warning:
"Because JPG, PNG, and WBMP do not support animation, Imageready will save only the current frame."
I don't understand what I've missed. All 12 original images were .gif. I had to convert them to RGB mode in order to create a 12 layer file, but don't think that is what is causing this issue.
Any ideas?
Recently I got a new computer and I had to reinstall Photoshop 7. Before reinstalling it, my font came out smooth and such.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create an action with an F shortcut, so when I save a file that I've edited, it saves it with an '_ed' after it.
When I've done the action, it just changes the whole file name, instead of adding the '_ed'. I know there is a batch option for this, but I was wondering how I could go about doing this on a file by file basis.
I just bought a new laptop computer....I had Adobe Photoshop CS2 installed on my desktop computer...have not used it much at all. So, just yesterday I did the "Transfer Activation "thing". I did as instructed...Installed it on my laptop...(this new laptop is an HP Pavilion with 2GB, Intel Centrino, Light Scribe, and Windows Vista).
When I was through installing it (it said I installed successfully)....then I was told to register it... ...I did so...using my new address (of the laptop)...It told me It registered successfully.
I then proceeded to download updates....when all was said and done, and rebooted...said the updates were installed successfully as were the registration, and updates.
I'm creating a 3D text logo using CS4 Illustrator and Photoshop. I created the logo in Illustrator, and copied it into Photoshop to apply color using hue and fill settings. I used the wand tool to select the top of the letters, then changed the hue on the sides, then filled the tops with a different color. I created a new layer for the selected tops. I want a transparent background, and I want to save the file as a Gif. However, when I flatten the image, I get a white background. Somehow, a white background sneaked in. Also, when I go to save the file, there is no option for a .gif. I saved it as a jpeg. But then Dreamweaver would not display it. It only showed a samll icon representing the graphic, but wouldn't display it.
1. How can I avoid having my transparent background become white?
2. Why am I not getting the option to save as a .gif?
3. why Dreamweaver wouldn't open the jpeg? Could it be size? File too wide. In the past Dreamweave automatically resizes to accomodate wide files.
I bought this photoshop magazine, and was trying to follow a tutorial for scanning in an image. (btw i have searched for this, and found nothing). So I scanned it and opened it in illustrator, and did live trace and everything to get the outline, then I exported it as psd (as the tut. said), but when I opened it in photoshop, the white background was gone. It was an outline of my drawing on the gray and white checkerboard background. Now in the tutorial it said to use the magic wand tool to select all the white, and delete it (in illustrator) so I thought maybe that was it, but it wasnt. It still opened like that without deleting the white areas.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have an image which is currently surrounded by a white background that I want to get rid of.
So far I have selected all of the background and hit delete, which appears to have deleted all of the white background as it shows up transparent.
However when I save the image as a TIFF an then open it up in Illustrator, the image still contains the white background.
I scanned several magazine covers (believe it or not I'm one of the few who still dosen't own a digi cam) and now want to place each pic/scan side by side or one on top of the other to resemble what a picture would look like if I had taken it with a digi cam.
Any ideas?
I use the line tool (U) quite a bit and for some reason now after I make my first line the next line i try to make is white/negative amd the line tool has the little minus mark (-) next to it. How do i reset it to the (+)? currently i am having to make a line, rasterize the layer and make the next line.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm in the process of prepping individual components of a design for Flash animation. I'm trying to apply a layer of #7C6844 with the color effect at 56% opacity and a layer of #999999 with the color burn effect at 12% opacity to the foreground image which has a transparent background. This task has proved to be rather impossible for me, but it seems like there should be a way to do it. I would use the wand tool > select inverse and apply the colors over top that way, but the foreground image has a lot of leaves and branches, so that method would be extremely tedious.
Is there a way I can select the entire image as a whole and leave out the background?
I'll attach the image and the desired result to further assist.
Recently, cs3 has stopped working for me. One day I tried to open it and it wouldn't respond. I tried uninstalling it and then reinstalling it and it didn't work - it says failed to install Adobe Photoshop CS3. All the shared components reinstall, but CS3 doesn't.
I downloaded the trial version of CS4 to see if that would work, but again it told me that Adobe Photoshop CS4 has failed to install. And again, all the shared components managed to install.
I have started editing photos using the Photo Fix Options in Instant Fix. I have then switched to Photo Editor to fine tune my edited picture. When I use save or save as, to save the edited picture both the edited and original appear in the files. If I start in in Photo Editor and save there is an option to uncheck that reads "Save in version set with Original" However I am more comfortable with beginning in Instant Fix and then switching to photo editor. For some reason when I go to save after switching from Instant fix to Photo editor the uncheck feature is no longer available. step by step instructions to save revised photo afterusing Instant Fix first then Photo Editor.

I had my automatic save set up for every 10 minutes but files were not being saved regularly. I deleted files from the Temp folder thinking it was full and now there are no .sv$ saving at all. How can I make drawings save automatically every 10 minutes?
I am cracking my head getting psd saved into pdf. I have tried both methods by saving as pdf in Photoshop itself and also print to file as Adobe Printer. Both results are in low resolution despite selecting "High Quality in jpeg" function.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI had worked on an image, came back to it the day after and my worked hadn't been saved, but I didn't remember closing the image without saving.
This is now happened a number of times on 3 machines. Whilst working in fullscreen mode and coming to the end of my work I pressed command+S. Pressing F twice to exit fullscreen mode, the progress bar at the bottom of the window didn't show and the red close button at the top left of the window didn't have a black dot in it (to signify something has changed which hasn't been saved).
When I press command+w to close to file, there is no prompt to save. The file just closes. On inspection of the modified date of the file, it appears that no save was executed at all. The date was from the previous day.
I have lost large amounts of work through this floor in the software. I have used PS since v1 so I am no novice, but this problem is really dangerous and needs sorting out as a matter of priority.
I'm having a problem after I send a file to cs6 from lightroom 4 and edit it, cs6 wants to save the file as a .tif or .psd. I would like to send it back to lightroom as a .cr2 file. Is this possible?
View 2 Replies View RelatedWhat will make PS save faster?
Two examples:
1, image file without any layers, I just had to use the patch tool on two corners to fix something.
2, image file with 25 layers
Both took the same amount to save; one as PSD, and one as LPEG. Is there a cure for saving documents faster? do I have to increase the GBs in the performance option box?
I almost always work from home, but for a project i'm gonna have to work with the client on site for some stuff.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was trying to make an avatar for someone at our church's forums. The picture was of Patrick from SpongeBob. I used the clone tool and cloned him onto a new RGB image with no background (transparent Checked). I then did some touching up by erasing some of the background that was cloned from the first time so that all that was left was just the image of Patrick.
I gave him a drop shadow so that when he would be uploaded onto the forums he would have a raised appearance.
So I went to "Save for Web" and made it a .gif file. I chose the best resolution for the picture and when looking at the example from the four options, it looked just as I thought it would once uploaded to the forums.
Then I saved it and went to the forums to upload it. When the .GIF image came up it had like a white drop shadow along with the original drop shadow that I gave it. Sort of looked like it had a visible aura of white surrounding it. I played around with the image to try and resolve and get rid of the white aura but I gave up.
